Accord- ingly, inquiries of this nature were submitted to various and sundry of the Armour strong men, and the re- sults may serve to glean a little in— terest for the reader. Ralph Faust, newly elected track captain writes us that he has been spending most of the hours of the day and night (Saturdays and Sun~ days included) in the services of a large drug store chain developing, cutting, sorting, and generally man- handling a couple of thousand rolls of film each day. What a training schedule! We hope he bore up un- der the strain. Haekman Named - Sports Manager Frank Hackman has been named to the position of intra~mural sports ARMOUR TECH NEWS manager as recently ’ Eugene Heike, A.T.S.A. president. Hackman’s application was selected from a group submitted at the close of last semester. He was sophomore president of the class of ’37 and has been active in intra-mural sports during the past three years. The intra-mural manager directs all inter-class, departmental, and Iran ternity sports competition. The ar- rangement of schedules, and the provision of rules, equipment, and referees are included in his work. As inaugurated last year, the intro.» mural manager will receive a minor manager’s award for his services. ing employment with a printer’s sup- ply company in the production de- partment with a little research in refining methods on the side. Noth- ing like lugging around a. little type metal to limber up the old muscles for Fall. Ray Braun, also of the track squad, sojourned at the civil camp for six weeks before putting in his time with a large south side construction com- pany. Speaking about construction, the baseball team had a nice repre- sentation on the remodeling job of Chapin hall right here at school. Lugullo, Moculcski and Rodkin of the Tcehawk nine were among the gang that hacked bricks, tore out walls, Dunbar at Detroit Also of the tracksters is Claire Dunbar, who spent his vacation learn- ing the makin’s of a fire protect at the Michigan Inspection Bureau in Detroit. Claire writes that fifteen Tech alumni are working in the of— fice including John Ahorn, ’35, form- er captain of the swimming team. Also actuarially inclined were Jim Sheehan, basketballer, who spent his time in Topeka and Southeastern Kansas, and Bud Parker, of the cin- dermen, who was. attached to the St. Louis bureau. Jack O’Connell of the cagers was a railroad man this summer. No, he didn’t have an executive position but he did wash Pullman cars! A dandy way to keep in training, not to speak of the benefits of an Increased reach to~ the basketball team. Ed Wagner, also‘a basketeer, just couldn’t keep away from the Institute. He spent his time helping Griffin in the chem storeroom. Seidenberg Has Accident Irv Seidenherg, baseball man, started off well enough with a nice restaurant job and a catchcr’s posi- tion on the eaterie’s ball team in the Illinois state amateur; league. He played four games, batted .375 and stole eleven bases. Irv also went out to the Sox park and gave the team the honor of his presence while he worked out with them. Hard luck set in very shortly, however, with him falling down a flight of stairs and fracturing his right hip. He’s now fully recovered and is back to bol- ster Tech sports hopes this fall. Leo Janas, Tech right fielder, spent his time as a dispenser of fine fuel and oil as well as a purveyor of tires, car washing, and the like at his brother’s super-super service station at Diversey and Central Park (ad- vertisement). He also took some courses at Lewis and Armour. Boy, that’s ambition! Jack Shanahan Takes Trip Jack Shanahan, golf team mains stay, reports that he has been doing some drafting and tool design which, incidentally is right up his alley since he’s a mechanical. About August Jack took a breathing spell on an auto trip through the East. Jack Stern, manager of the natators, writes that he has been keeping in training for the hectic sports season by clerking in a grocery and, by his own admission, doing as little as possible. A bad habit, Jack, a bad habit, but we know you’ll snap out of it. Jimmy (Dunne, a lad with an en- viable reputation as a lightweight wrestler, had an eye out for training when he enrolled on WPA project 2715, putting in sidewalks. This is the same gang that replaced Ar- mour’s antique walks. Jimmy boasts of being a union “cement worker". 0h, Mr. Green!

There is just one right time to take off the leaves. . .that’s when they have ripened to their fullest flavor. Often the tender ripe leaves are gathered just before the dawn...to preserve the full "spice” and aroma for Chesterfield. To settle up some old business first, let’s offer some long overdue congrats to Joe Balrtusek and Lou Logullo on their election to the covcaptaincy of the 1937 baseball team. Carl Fors- berg will be the manager of next sea~ son’s baseball hopefuls. '4: 8 * First on our sports’ list this year come intramural tournaments in golf and tennis. Maybe things will turn out difi‘erent this year in these two contests. Think what a revelation it would be to complete both of them! 1‘ ’5 While still on the subject of golf we offer our felicitations to Jack Shana- han who was elected last June to lead the golf team in ’37. Hope the tour- nament brings out some good ma- terial, Jack. * 1‘ * Speaking of basketball and base— ball, we are anxiously awaiting news of the new mentor for these two sports since Coach Kraift has rc‘ signed in favor of a business life. 35 ’F l? A new face to be seen around Ar- mour is that of Tom Green, who is entering Armour as a junior with football and baseball experience from both St. Mela and St. Mary’s. In football he was a full-back and his baseball tendencies take him to the pitcher’s mound. ‘b >9 Because of the enthusiasm of an adverse nature shown at the fresh— For hundreds afyeam the Persians have known the secret of fine flavor. In the dead of night a Persian "melon- dirincr” may wake up his wealthy master to enjoy the perfizct melon—~picleed by lamfilight at its exact moment of full maturity. Fall Tennis Entries Now Being Accepted Another year, another fall tennis tournament. During the first week of school entries for this year’s tour— nament will be accepted. Prof. Col- vert, tennis coach, will be in charge of all arrangements. The tourney is open to all students including new freshmen. Recent rains have left the courts in very bad shape but the ground keepers are working hard to get them into condition again. The tourney will continue until the cold weather makes further play impossible. All players remaining in the contest even though it is not entirely completed, will be eligible for next year’s ten- his team and will be permitted to practice in the armory in the spring. Pairings and rules will be posted on the bulletin board as soon as the list of entries becomes large enough. Last. year’s tournament was com- pleted as far as the quarter finals with eight men still in the running. Five of these men, VG. Amory, M. Hers, R. Bochme, A. J. Kubik, and G. Palka are expected back this year to give newcomers a run for their money. manwsophomore football game last year by the higher-ups, it looks as if we all will have to be satisfied with the touchball tournament. Football on an untrained basis is at best a risky business. ’1‘ 5i: ’0‘ Rumor has it that Ralph Faust, captain of this year’s track squad, may not be able to return to school this fall. Hope it doesn’t materialize; the track team needs him. Tuesday, September 22, V936 Elaseball to Start Early in Qetober Although varsity sport contests at Armour do not start until the early winter season has set in, the student body will get a chance at some first class athletics in a few weeks when the interclass baseball, wrestling and boxing tourncys are started. First on the list and commencing early in October are the hardball baseball games between the classes. Help Class Spirit It has always been the custom at Armour to sponsor these inter-class games, not only for the chance they give to new men to demonstrate pos- sible varsity ability, but for the good that can come out of them in further- ing class spirit and uniting the new freshmen together. Last year the fresh showed up in great style and nearly succeeded in making them- selves champs, but were defeated in their contest with the sophs after scoring five runs in the second inning. Kruse, pitching for the newcomers, struck out ten men in the first day’s work which ended in a 6—6 tie that was completed the next day in a two inning playoll1 which brought the final score to 9—6 in favor of the soph- 011101135. The game between the juniors and seniors was won easily by the seniors on two-hit pitching by their hurling staff. Not wishing to put all the work on their pitchers’ shoulders the team also helped along with some mighty handy work at their bats to win 10-3. Seniors Win Playoff The playoll‘ game deciding the series was won by the seniors, when the tying and winning runs were last season. Golf Tournament Will Start Soon As soon as possible after school gets under way, plans will be forth- coming for the fall intramural golf tourney. The intentions of those in charge are to get it started at the earliest possible date, so that some conclusion may be reached before cold weather sets in. An announce— ment of the time and place, which is as yet undecided, will probably be posted on the bulletin board this week. No Varsity Players The tournament, an annual affair at Armour, is open to everyone ex- cept those who played varsity golf Those who fall in this category are Captain Shanahun, Skuza, and Haasc, who, along with Richards and Davidson of the ’36 class, made up last year’s team. In a way this tourney is two~fold in its aim. First, it will determine a golf champion for the school, and second- ly, it will fill the vacancies left in the team by last year’s graduation. The two finalists, under certain re- strictions, are chosen for the team. While freshmen may take part they are ineligible to play on the team, because of the freshman rule put in- to effect last year. walked in by the sophomore pitchers. Rules for the games are. liberal; letter and varsity men are allowed to compete on their class teams so long as they play another position than that which they hold orb/the school team. There are no other rc- striations and every one mayltry out. Practice will begin within“ the next two weeks. ’ €l2este7fields are made by Liggett é?
